added in a whisper to Harry, "but he'll have a harder time frightenin'

So Harry set off into the heart of the forest with Malfoy and Fang. | patting | patting Hagrid |
They
walked for nearly half an hour, deeper and deeper into the forest, until
the path became almost impossible to follow because the trees were so
thick. | Hagrid | Hagrid gingerly |
Harry thought the blood seemed to be getting thicker. | gingerly | gingerly on |
There were
splashes on the roots of a tree, as though the poor creature had been
thrashing around in pain close by. | on | on the |
Harry could see a clearing ahead,
through the tangled branches of an ancient oak. | the | the arm |

Its long, slender legs were stuck out at
odd angles where it had fallen and its mane was spread pearly-white on
the dark leaves. | the | the low |
Harry had taken one step toward it when a slithering sound made him
freeze where he stood. | low | low garden |
A bush on the edge of the clearing quivered....
Then, out of the shadows, a hooded figure came crawling across the
ground like some stalking beast. | garden | garden wall |
Harry, Malfoy, and Fang stood
transfixed. | wall | wall and |
The cloaked figure reached the unicorn, lowered its head
over the wound in the animal's side, and began to drink its blood. | and | and walked |

Malfoy let out a terrible scream and bolted -- so did Fang. | to | to the |
The hooded
figure raised its head and looked right at Harry -- unicorn blood was
dribbling down its front. | the | the front |
It got to its feet and came swiftly toward
Harry -- he couldn't move for fear. | front | front door |
Then a pain like he'd never felt before pierced his head; it was as
though his scar were on fire. | door | door . |
Half blinded, he staggered backward. | . | . He |
He
heard hooves behind him, galloping, and something jumped clean over
Harry, charging at the figure. | He | He laid |
The pain in Harry's head was so bad he fell to his knees. | laid | laid Harry |
It took a
minute or two to pass. | Harry | Harry gently |
When he looked up, the figure had gone. | gently | gently on |
A centaur
was standing over him, not Ronan or Bane; this one looked younger; he
had white-blond hair and a palomino body. | on | on the |
"Are you all right?" | the | the doorstep |
said the centaur, pulling Harry to his feet. | doorstep | doorstep , |

He had astonishingly blue eyes, like pale
sapphires. | a | a letter |

that stood out, livid, on Harry's forehead. | letter | letter out |

"My name is Firenze," he added, as he lowered himself on to his front
legs so that Harry could clamber onto his back. | tucked | tucked it |
There was suddenly a sound of more galloping from the other side of the
clearing. | it | it inside |
Ronan and Bane came bursting through the trees, their flanks
heaving and sweaty. | inside | inside Harry |
"Firenze!" | Harry | Harry 's |
Bane thundered. | 's | 's blankets |
"What are you doing? | blankets | blankets , |

Firenze suddenly reared on to his hind legs in anger, so that Harry had
to grab his shoulders to stay on. | stood | stood and |

And Firenze whisked around; with Harry clutching on as best he could,
they plunged off into the trees, leaving Ronan and Bane behind them. | bundle | bundle ; |

Firenze slowed to a walk, warned Harry to keep his head bowed in case of
low-hanging branches, but did not answer Harry's question. | shook | shook , |
They made
their way through the trees in silence for so long that Harry thought
Firenze didn't want to talk to him anymore. | , | , Professor |
They were passing through a
particularly dense patch of trees, however, when Firenze suddenly
stopped. | Professor | Professor McGonagall |
"Harry Potter, do you know what unicorn blood is used -for?" | McGonagall | McGonagall blinked |
"No," said Harry, startled by the odd question. | blinked | blinked furiously |
"We've only used the
horn and tail hair in Potions." | furiously | furiously , |
"That is because it is a monstrous thing, to slay a unicorn," said
Firenze. | , | , and |
"Only one who has nothing to lose, and everything to gain,
would commit such a crime. | and | and the |
The blood of a unicorn will keep you alive,

You have
slain something pure and defenseless to save yourself, and you will have
but a half-life, a cursed life, from the moment the blood touches your

Harry stared at the back of Firenze's head, which was dappled silver in
the moonlight. | light | light that |
"But who'd be that desperate?" | that | that usually |
he wondered aloud. | usually | usually shone |
"If you're going to be
cursed forever, deaths better, isn't it?" | shone | shone from |
"It is," Firenze agreed, "unless all you need is to stay alive long
enough to drink something else -- something that will bring you back to
full strength and power -- something that will mean you can never die. | from | from Dumbledore |

heart. | to | to have |
